In which ways are RNA and DNA different?
a. RNA has ribose sugar, DNA has deoxyribose sugar
b. RNA has uracil, DNA has thymine
c. RNA is single-stranded, DNA is a double-helix
d. all of the above

Respuesta :

Answer B: RNA has Uracil, DNA has Thymine

Answer:

d. all of the above is the correct answer.

Explanation:

These are the main difference between RNA and DNA

  • Sugar present in RNA is ribose sugar whereas sugar present in DNA is deoxyribose sugar.
  • Nitrogenous bases present in DNA are adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine whereas in the case of RNA nitrogenous bases present are adenine, guanine, cytosine and uracil which is replaced by thymine in DNA.
  • RNA is single-stranded whereas DNA is a double-helix.

thus the all the above(D) options are correct.
